 “In America, ideas that you create are protected by copyright laws. If you create a book, song, painting, architectural style, or movie then nobody else can make money from that idea without your permission. There are also rules in school that prevent students from copying other people’s writing and submitting it as their own idea.” :)

Fair use: means you cant copy anything unless you state were you got the information from.

public domain: 70 years after the person dies it goes into public domain meaning anyone can use it.

plagiarism : It is when you take the words of someone else and using them as your own

Royalty: the permission to use something.
